Default Battery show in percentage?

How to display the battery as percentage instead of a icon representation.

I'd rather see 45% battery life then a icon that show's half.

Any apps that you recommend for this?

Epic Blackclass will be reeased soon and will implement this. Initially showing 10% at a time will update later with 5 % intervals.

Since TouchWiz doesn't have battery percentage built into it, the only way would be changing/flashing the framework with requires root.

You can get apps that show a battery notification with %, but changing the battery icon itself to have percentage isn't possible without root.

Yeah that irked me there was no option in there to show it.

In fact there were other apps that when I opened up actually showed the percentage number.
